I thought id add a bit more:

Milliput can be used with water to smooth out sny splits or cracks and keep the object sturdy as one piece

Also working with paper clips or any metal wire or sorts using a set of wire cutters and long nose pliers to help cut and bend up the wire is important too

From my experience, I love to customize Take Along/ Take N' Play. But, considering how difficult those things are to take apart (they're like freakin Nokias) I like to paint small crevices and spaces like running boards and linings with paint on a toothpick. On the topic of customizing Take Along running boards, if anyone attempts to do so, I would recommend painting in between the splashers, so it blends into the running board better. I painted the running boards on my engines black. and I LOVE the look. Finally, if you're going to spray something to seal your paint, make sure to spray it lightly, yet consistently. Spraying too close to the model is a good way to leave drip marks, and might even mess with the paint on the model. I hope this helps somebody out there, and more importantly, gets someone thinking about trying their hand on customizing a Take Along/ Take N' Play model ( *cough* the best TTTE toyline *cough* )!

One tip I've given before but I'll leave it here as well: If you're using loctite glue to attach parts, glue first then paint afterwards because a seam or stain will form after applying.

An awesome video dude I've used some of these techniques myself but they're just some that I haven't been able to try out yet so I will say this is a very helpful video. Also I was surprised to see my custom Stanley making appearance since it's my most recent. But you know the old saying goes surprises come in all shapes and sizes. Anyway can't wait to see more videos dude.

This is Just a model tip but can be used for everything. To give your model more realism with more real looking coal for engines if you dont have real coal just weather the fake coal it gets rid of that plastic look without using real coal
